Online Auto Insurance SR22 Certificate

Reader’s Question:

I have not reinstated my license yet since after 4 years of DUI conviction. Do I need an sr22 Certificate? I live in TN.

Thank you for asking Chris.

A single DUI conviction in Tennessee can cost an person quite a bit after all the fines and fees have been paid. The potential costs of a TN DUI conviction may include:

* Fines
* Court Costs
* Bail
* Towing and storage fees
* Attorney fees
* Alcohol education program enrollment
* Driver license reinstatement fees
* Ignition interlock program costs
* Higher insurance premiums and SR-22 filing

I you want to get your license reinstated after a DUI conviction, one of the requirements is to provide proof of a SR-22 filing by your insurance provider. Waiting 4 years to reinstate your drivers license seems to negate the need for the SR-22 form to be filed. You can verify with the TN Department of Safety to make sure about your specific situation.

Goodluck!
